Andrea Brillantes plays drag queen in 'Drag You and Me'

Andrea Brillantes sashays her way into the hearts of viewers in iWantTFC’s Pride Month offering, “Drag You and Me,” a modern family rom-com drama about drag culture that celebrates love in all of its forms. The series also stars JC Alcantara and Christian Bables.

The latest iWantTFC original series, which streams this June 2, highlights self-expression and sense of belonging within one’s chosen family. Real-life drag queens Brigiding, Viñas Deluxe, Xilhouete, and Precious Paula Nicole will help bring the colorful story to life.

“Drag You and Me” revolves around the life of the fearless and fabulous Betty (Andrea), also known by her drag name ‘Valentine Royale,’ a cisgender woman and the ultimate LGBTQIA+ ally.

Betty ends up joining Manila Queen Supreme, the grandest drag competition in the country, in order to earn money and save her family’s gay comedy bar. But her fellow competitors are unaware that she is a woman and not a real drag queen.

Her drag queen dreams get complicated when her friendship with Jason/Shania (JC), a male-bisexual drag queen and her fiercest competitor, blossoms into something more. Their journey as young individuals will get even more interesting because of their drag sister and Jason’s mentor, Charlie (Christian), and his indifference towards Betty.

Despite the complexities surrounding their relationships, the three of them are bound by their unconditional love for their families. Betty was raised by an out and proud queer family who loves and supports her dearly, while Jason found a family in Charlie as he still struggles to come out to his biological family out of fear that they won’t accept who he truly is.

“Drag You and Me” is directed by JP Habac and also stars Romnick Sarmenta, KaladKaren Davila, Ice Seguerra, Jon Santos, Cris Villanueva, Albie Casiño, Lance Carr, PJ Endrinal, Jeric Raval, Amy Nobleza, Noel Comia Jr., and Yves Flores, with special guests from ‘Home from the Golden Gays’ - Flor Bien Jr. and Rico Reyes.
